Stephen Nedoroscik recounted his first meeting with Tess McCracken at Penn State University. In his conversation with Penn State in August last year, the gymnast remarked [11:03 onwards]:
"We're the same class, both in gymnastics. It was literally, like the first week of college. We were going to the Academic Center for athletes, just making our rounds, doing our tests and stuff for ADHD, things like that. And I remember, I saw her and I was like, oh, I think she's on the gymnastics team. And then I saw her crack her back, and I was like, “You cracking your back?” That was my opening line and I was like, dang, I'm so dumb... "
The gymnast further narrated:
"Anyways, we went and took this test together and, I chuckled out loud. I was like, “oh my God, I'm literally doing that right now!” because the test said, do you shake your leg frequently? And then she laughed and said, “I just answered that too, and was also shaking my leg!” So, you know, right away kind of kicked it off with that goofy vibe. Definitely some relateability as well. We became good friends after that and then shortly started dating after."
Stephen Nedoroscik was last seen at the DWTS Live Tour 2025, where he served as the co-host for the tour. The gymnast hopes to return in action at the FIG World Championships, which shall be held in Jakarta, Indonesia, in October 2025.
